Carmen Marc Valvo

Absolutely old Hollywood glam. The red on this dress is GORGEOUS (reds can be soooo tricky). I wish I would have gone with the long, but it was a very flattering style without fear of the shoulder-less side slipping down. Needs spanx for sure and the wrinkles did not want to come out!

I wore this to attend the Marine Corps Ball and it was perfect for this event! I paired this with http://www.renttherunway.com/shop/designers/pierced_jewelry/bacallearrings and I must say as stunning as the dress was, the earrings were just as gorgeous! The dress is very comfortable and just the right length. The red color is gorgeous. If you are looking at this dress, it is definitely one you should go with.

I LOVED THIS DRESS MORE THEN ANY DRESS I HAVE EVER WORN! It made me feel tall, slim, sexy, elegant, like I was a prices. I went to my boyfriend's sister's wedding and was going to meet the family for the first time. I wanted to look elegant and sexy, with out looking slutty....of course, this dress lived up to it's name...all eyes where on me and in a good way! If you are lucky to snag this dress....enjoy it!!!!!

This dress was so comfortable & easy to move around in! Great for the event I was working! I received so many compliments! This dress is perfect if you are tall. I usually wear an 8, but was not available in long, so I went with a size larger in long.

Gorgeous dress, however, too over the top for the company holiday party I was attending. This is a dress I would rent again in a heartbeat for the right occasion. The dress did run big. I usually just barley fit into an 8, but this fit comfortably (and even big in some areas.) I also had the 10L which was just huge all over.

Loved this dress the moment I put it on! I am 5'4 and I usually wear a size 8. I thought it was a little big in the stomach area and tighter in the chest (34 D), so I would recommend going down for your back-up size. This was my 5th year attending this Christmas Formal, and I received more complements on this dress more than anything I have ever worn to this event. Elegant, dramatic, and COMFORTABLE!!!

This is the best long dress I have ever worn in my whole life and I'm 40! The fit is just perfect. The red is just the right color. The dress is made of heavy crepe so it really follows the form of your body. You have to make sure that you don't have a belly because it will definitely show. I felt very sophisticated, glamorous and rich (lol). Oh how I loved this dress!

I wore this dress for a black tie New Year's Eve party and it was fantastic. So many compliments. It was a little big through the waist/hips, but not too noticeable... made it very comfortable, but I think I would have preferred a smaller size, but the 6 wasn't available for me... The picture shows a small train in the back, but I didn't really have a train... it is longer in the back, but just slightly. I had 4 inch heels on and the front hem showed my toes, and the back hem didn't touch the floor. So I am not sure how the train appeared... Absolutely gorgeous dress and you will feel like royalty wearing. Lined in a red satin and feels great on.

i'm 5'9 and i rented the long, the dress came up to my ankles.

I ordered this dress anticipating on wearing the size 6, but the size 4 fit better. I wear between a 4 and a 6 depending on the bust size, but the bust was not very fitted in this dress. I'm 5'4" and the length was fine with about 3 inch heels. I loved wearing the dress and wanted to keep it. People gave me compliments on all night. Definitely recommend this dress!!

I loved this dress. It complimented my hair and skin tone well (brown and olive). Wear with red lipstick. The material is softer than the picture makes it out to be, but was still very pretty. It was a little big, but overall fit pretty well. A string of pearls and gold shoes give it an old Hollywood look

to wear such a comfortable, beautiful dress. Definitely stands out in a sea of black dresses. Even the next day, people were saying, "You were the one in that gorgeous red dress." Have to admit I said outloud, "Goodbye pretty dress" when I dropped it in the mail. Don't second guess - rent this and you'll be thrilled.

This dress fit beautifully, flowed perfectly and rocked the dance floor effortlessly! Many wonderful compliments throughout the evening.

I like this dress a lot and got some great compliments. The 2L was unavailable when I rented, but it probably would have fit better. The 4L was a little roomy

This dress is beautiful. I ordered it as my backup dress. I ended up not wearing it though. It runs a little large overall. I measure; Bust 34 1/2", waist 29", hip 37 1/2" and am 49 yrs old. I hope this helps with your decision/sizing.

I wore this dress to a Military ball, and it was VERY true to size, It fit like a glove, and I felt like a movie star in it. I'm 5'2" and I was worried about the length but I got the 4R and it fit so well, the tips of my toes and shoes showed, perfect. I got so many compliments on it, and I would recommend this dress to anyone!

Probably my favorite dress ever. The material was nice and heavy and hung perfect. Loved the way it felt when I walked. Very flattering, but I could see if you had features you want to hide might not be a good pick. I am 5'10 and the length was good. Wore with 4" heels and you could only see a little of my toes.

I rented this dress for a Junior League formal and it was perfect! I got a ton of compliments and felt great in the dress. I am 5'11'' so I ordered the long size and it was just long the right length. The dress was a little tight around my left arm but other than that I have no complaints!

I am 5'1 so I had to wear 5 inch heels. I wore the 4R and it fit well considering that I am curvier in the hip area. I would recommend this dress!I saw this dress on a friend of mine and she mentioned that she got this from RTR. This was the first time "renting" a dress for a wedding and absolutely loved the fit and the feel.

I wore this for my husband's work formal event, the invitation for which referenced a "Hollywood glamour" theme. The dress fit perfectly and I felt absolutely fabulous in it. I was flattered to receive compliments all night long from both women & men...and many people called me the "best dressed" at the event :-) I was so sad to send this back and sincerely wish I could own it...the retail price might just be worth it! Enjoy this gorgeous dress!

This dress fit beautifully. I never write reviews but rent the runway has been awesome to work with. And I found all of your reviews really helpful. The dress was to size. I normally wear an 8 but thought I might need the 10. Guess I was wrong. I did not wear this dress because it was my back up. But if I ever need a red dress again, I will definitely get it. Beautiful shade of red too.

I rented this for a charity ball and it was amazing. I wore a black dress last year, just like everybody else so I wanted to stand out this year. I felt like a million dollars in this dress. It's so comfortable and beautiful. I ended up wearing the 12L because the 10L was just a little too short with the heels on (I'm 5'8" and wore with 3 1/2" heels). I would rent this dress again.

Wore this to the biggest charity event in Phoenix- Celebrity Fight Night. This dress was made for the red carpet! LOVED!!

I received a lot of complements on this dress. The color is beautiful and it really is a nice weight. I did have to iron it though, but wrinkles came out without a problem.

It fit perfectly and I absolutely loved it! The worst part was having to return it! I'm 5'4" 126lbs and it fit great and the length was just right with heels. I would definitely recommend this dress!

I just wore this dress last night to a formal black tie event, and this was the dress of the night! I was the only one at the entire event wearing red, and everyone did a triple take. The dress color, size and length were perfect for me. I wore kitten heels because I wanted the dress to come all the way down to the floor. This was my first rental, and I could not be more pleased with the experience. The dress arrived timely, in excellent condition, and the return process was seamless. I will definitely rent again! P.S. Thank you to all previous reviewers, especially the ones who offered weight and height info - you are the reason I took a chance on this dress.

I loved this dress and looked fabulous. In a sea of black dresses, this one makes you stand out. The fabric is thick and the dress is well made. You will feel like a star!

I rented this dress three days before a military ball. I hadn't had time to shop, and was told of Rent The Runway by a friend. I am so thankful she told me! I am very short (5"2) and have a hard time ordering clothes online. This dress was the perfect fit. With three inch heels the Petite was a perfect fit. I received compliments all night on my dress! This dress runs very true to size. I am usually a 10, occasionally an 8. It was like the 10P was made for me! I will be using Rent the Runway from now on!!

The fit & look of this dress is amazing. The only downside is that Rent the Runway has gotten so popular that 2 other women were wearing the same dress as me! :p

I felt so glamorous all night! I got so many complements that I "looked like I belonged on the red carpet" during my sorority formal in Savannah, GA.

Got this dress last minute. Perfect length (maybe even a tad bit short). Very slimming. Did not hug at all. Had to pin the ruffle so it fell more attractively but besides that absolutely perfect. Looked maturely sexy for a prom. Would never be seen in the same dress twice, but might break that rule for this dress.

I loved this dress, it was very comfy and fit in all the right places, I did not even have to wear a spandx,,true to size!!!

I have never had so many complements in my life!! I wore this to a military ball and people we didn't even know wanted to shake my hand and take a picture of me in my dress. There were a few men that about knocked my date over trying to shake my hand. I felt so incredibly beautiful! I was nervous it wasn't going to fit length wise because I had to order the Regular as the long was not in...I am 5.5 and wore a 3 inch heel and it was perfect! Also I am a size 4 on top and a 6 on bottom with a hourglass shape...the 6 would have been way too big on my waist.

I wore this dress to my junior prom and it was absolutely perfect! It fit very well although it did run a tad bit big. But, overall it was still extremely flattering. It showed all my curves beautifully while still hiding my flaws! The color was radiant and I received countless compliments saying that I looked like a movie star right off the red carpet! I know I felt like a star in this dress!

I rented this for a Black Tie wedding, but ended up wearing my back-up dress. The dress is even prettier in person, but I thought it overwhelmed my 5'4'' frame. The fabric is really thick and it puckered around the zipper, and I also didn't like the seams on the breast area, but I suspect both problems may be due to the fact I don't have a large chest. Very pretty dress, but I imagine it's more flattering on taller people!

I felt so regal in this dress! It fit very well although the fabric showed a few bumps. I wore this dress for my senior prom and received countless compliments on my dress and was stopped by a few mothers who were taking pictures of my group and told that my dress was very classy and that I looked stunning in it! My date even told me multiple times through out the night that I looked absolutely beautiful. I would definitely recommend this dress!

I loved this dress - I'm 5"1 and I wore the dress with 3" heels, and it fell perfectly. Not too short/long! It does show curves- I wore Spanx underneath to give a flat tummy look.

The fabric is just heavy enough to hang beautifully, but let me tell you it doesn't hide anything! So I would suggest wearing a shaper if you want perfectly clean lines. The slight "tail" of the dress was absolutely perfect and the sleeve was a beautiful eye catcher! Wonderful dress!

Loved this dress! I got a lot of compliments that night!! The only negatives I'd say about the dress would be that the material is rather thick, so if you're looking for a lightweight/softer look I wouldn't recommend. Also, I had to pin one of the sides around the chest because it was a little wide for me. Overall though, this dress is great if you're going for elegance :)
